i agree with u totally yanny! also if u want ur idea to be less radical u could have it b4 the gove makes that 5 year thing on cars u can make it so b4 that u have a 5 year plan to make all new cars those fuel efficient cars that are half run by electricity ;) so this way the Population can get used to eletric power slowly and after that u can make the 5 year plan for full eletric cars. just a thought ;)

I’m staying away from the Fusion idea totally right now. This is about using technology that we already have in the real world.
The Waste is an issue I do not how to deal with. I say just pick a nice province in Canada and go on from there.
Its nice to finally have some popular support!

well, i don’t know how popular your whole “let’s dump our crap in Canada” plan will be with Canadians . . . . Considering our creativity and inventiveness, we may just find a use for that waste that Americans might not consider so popular. I would have to leave my profession to help with that plan.
-
You wouldn’t have to leave your profession, your profession will be converted to electricity based things.
Come on… do you really NEED Nova Scotia?
-
Just pick a state that nobody uses, like North Dakota. Knock down the mountains, lots of cemetery space and space to store waste.

I love the idea of replacing the old Plants with nuclear ones. Genious Yanny. The extream enviromentalists wont be happy, but I can live with that :)
As for making electric cars the standard, i dont think that the U.S. Govt. will make it happen. They are availible now, and sure people are buying them. However they wont become really popular (assuming they do) untill the majority of the American public wants them. Sure, if you ask some people about electric cars they say something like “sounds like a good idea” but not many of these people have bought them. The old actions speeking louder than words i guess.
But good post Yanny, i liked it

LEAVE N.S. ALONE!!!
but seriously, the Canadian shield is already a repository for nuclear waste afaik.
-
I know Yanny doesn’t want to talk about the waste but I think I have a solution: All the money we save can be used to send it into space on a space shuttle payload. 8)

yay! more junk in space, the earth will have rings yet.

Here’s the greatest idea of them all.
America can imbed its nuclear waste in the condoms and underwear that it manufactures to be exported to countries it does not like anymore. The ensuing low level of radiation might just be enough to destroy the germ cell line residing in the testicles of the men of this nation, thus causing the birth rate to plummet, making the country inhabitable.
Hows that for a long-term Iraq strategy :D(note: for all of the stupid people out there, i am being satirical - the smart people didn’t bother to read this note :) )
-
CC, I don’t really like that idea. I’m starting a poll, dump in Canada, or some other stupid idea.
But seriously, Space could work. Problem is, what happens if the Space Shuttle blows up while on earth?

I am going to take my proposal one step further. This will be the greatest thing ever to happen to the US economy since the industrial revolution.
Its kinda like a reversed domino effect. This will create a unique market in America. Not only will electricity be very cheap and abundent. It will make money for the Federal Government, money which can be used to do two things. First off, you can cut taxes, but I have a much better idea.
When the whole process starts, the Government crunches some numbers, and distributes a very large grant among the leading car companies in America. They tell them the plan. The added money, and maybe some Government manpower, goes 100% into researching electric powered cars. The result?
More jobs. Its not secret the foreign car industry depends on America. Its also no secret its beating America in the competition for better cars. This move will single handedly bring the car business back to detroit (and elsewere). Hundreds of Thousands of jobs will be created. Also, the car companies will have a huge market of sellers. Again, mostly all of them will be American citizens.
But the Tech market will also be revived. This move will do two things for the market. First off, and more importantly, these car parts will require many, many new parts. Most of them are already developed and used for other products. However, never before has such demand fallen upon the computer industry. It will give a huge boost, as now every American citizen will end up buying, indirectly, from these tech companies. Secondly, the more jobs (and therefore, better economy), will put more money out to the average consumer. This means more people buying luxery products, which not only boosts the entire economy, but especially helps the tech industry.
Now the US economy has been well revived. People are spending less money on fuel and electricity. Jobs are aplenty, and our Government is saving a vast amount of money. No doubt, you’ll see a tax cut, which will further fuel the economy. The value of the dollar will raise. Our military will be able to pull out of the oil regions of the world, and we’ll save further billions when the aid packages stop to Israel and Saudi Arabia.
When the dollar raises, the Yen and the Euro falls. This will attract foreign business away from Japan and Europe (mainly Japan). This will further strengthen the American car industry, since Japan is where their major competitors are. Again, hurts the Yen and raises the dollar.
I’ll keep going after I see what you guys think. And yes (my parents were sceptical) I did write this myself )

You couldn’t pay me to buy an American car. They don’t last long at all.

It sounds like a nice idea, however i agree with EG - American cars usually suck (even the good ones).
Also you’ll never find a politician with dreams of the White House sponsoring this. Too many votes in Texas, Alaska, Oklahoma etc. Also it smacks of the gov’t being involved in an area of the economy where it traditionally avoided - it smacks of communism.
Very politically unpopular. -
@Yanni:

Launching garbage into space still costs too much. Unless of course you can stow it away on some piece of shit Russian spacecraft. :wink:
-

Space would not work.
It’s too dangerous: think of a shuttle blowing up while being a few kms up in the sky, that will be a nice fallout. -
Yeah Falk, I agree with you, I even said that ) However, I’m sure the technogeeks in Nasa could divise a container that could withstand being blown up. Kinda like a plane’s black box.
Getting this passed will be next to impossible in America today. Special interest groups, President Bush, Hardcore Envirmentalists (although we are actually helping the envirment by doing this), and crazy hardcore capitalists will deny it. But like I said, if past, it will be the greatest economic boost America has had since the industrial revolution.

My last Ford lasted me 10 years, 140,000 miles. Well worth the 8 thousand US dollars I paid for it…

that’s lucky :D

we have had our Chevy since 92 and put about 120,000 miles on it, and she is still ticking.
